Today's Colors: Cinnamon Cider, Mossy Meadow, Soft Seafoam. Dessert: Chose any shade of pink. The Paper Players: Spring is in the air!
I water colored my image adding wink of stella to the edges of the butterfly and center of the flowers. I sponged blue on top and green on bottom, added a matting and popped it up over an embossed panel of seafoam. Using the light seafoam blend, I colored each tulip. Thanks for stopping by! ~Roberta

I love the image (I have that stamp--I need to get it out and use it!) and the pretty frame you created. Love the shading top and bottom, and am blown away by the subtle coloring of each and every tulip in the border. Lovely card!

This watercolor is just gorgeous, Roberta! And, I love the extra emphasis you added to the tulip border with your Blends. It's subtle but big at the same time.
PS: I also always enjoy your outdoor photo shoots! Isn't that the best light to work with?
